@saoulidisg@passionate_xx Cutting off from family is not cult behavior. Cutting off from friends is. Families can be cults. Family coercion can be a cult behavior. Does it end with telling a child they don’t know their own body—how about they don’t know their own mind. That’s classic cult mind control.

A pleasure to join @UNDPAfrica Director @ahunnaeziakonwa today @BrookingsGlobal for a terrific panel on #AfricaCreditRatings--and why high interest payments cost the continent so much. @UNDP is investing in data, advisory services, and capacity development to ease the burden.
@michikokakutani@TheAtlantic@michikokakutani the work your dad did, which was picked up by Arrow-Debreu, is imho at the center of the financial crisis, which ushered in a phase of liars and despots. You could make a unique difference. Can we talk?
@CdmxDinero@mvzelenks@nytimes@restofworld John Liu is based in Seoul. He came to Phoenix to cover the story. Most likely he did know of Olivia Zhou’s piece, but they’re not the same. Olivia’s has more historical depth and is more social, with a focus on culture clash. John’s is a better business article, IMO. Read both!
@Jessicalessin Yes! By providing finance that is based on granular performance analysis rather than the law of large numbers, you can help any Tech that is adding value. For little Tech, it’s a path to sustainable debt financing that enables the owners to keep control.
Financial reform matters
@superwuster This seems like a very interesting question, especially if linked to the why or when. EG: we don’t know what problems the closed form solution to chaos invented by Princeton Sin-I Cheng could simplify because the solution itself was too big a challenge to establishment thinking.
@russelldegraff @paulitically@superwuster#Money. It’s why, I’m sorry to say it, this is why SCOTUS will prevail. They have a slingshot that they’ve persuaded everyone is the Rock of Ages.
@superwuster The most egregious form of what you describe is in the productization of debt capital: production systems are archaic, their operators unaccountable. Egregious, because it impacts money creation. Reason it goes on is a conceptual failure to recognize that this is the situation.
@ELuttwak@ELuttwak it’s beautiful, stinging satire. BTW, I use your seminal work in strategy every day to clarify my thinking and improve my planning outcomes. Let me take the opportunity to thank you here.
@7Veritas4 Jack, you know the map by heart but his world consists of one person, with no map, hence no boundaries. Neither the map nor the mapless world is the world.
